What is required to obtain the Greenhand degree?

To obtain the Greenhand degree, access to the Manual and Handbook is crucial as these resources provide essential information regarding the FFA organization, its traditions, and the expectations of members. The Manual and Handbook serve as foundational documents that outline the rights and responsibilities of FFA members, the structure and opportunities within the organization, and the specific requirements needed to advance through the degrees of membership.

While participation in conventions, involvement in community projects, and having membership for a certain duration are significant elements of FFA engagement and development, they are not specific requirements for achieving the Greenhand degree. The Greenhand degree is primarily focused on introducing members to the organization and ensuring they understand its objectives, values, and functions, which is facilitated by the guidance provided in the Manual and Handbook.
